I still think this looks like a re-skinned Battlefield 4, but that may just be my boredom of the series. With how BF4 turned out on PC, I think I'll wait for this one.
Yeah I have a problem with it as well. Especially if it's like BF4 and the helicopter (there are two, that scout helicopter and that bigger transport one) is basically a moving air spawn point. It's especially bad with Hardline which seems to be going for a more focused objective oriented approach as the games primary game mode, as opposed to the classic Battlefield spread out chaos of Conquest.
I think that with Hardline it's a good way to sort of dial the series back a bit, after BF3 and BF4. It looks like Hardline is gonna be a strange mix between the Bad Company series and BF3/BF4. It's gonna have that focus on infantry combat at close range with a focused objective mode as its primary game mode similar to how Rush was in BC2 (And let's be honest here, Conquest in BC2 fucking sucked, but then Rush in BF3 and BF4 sucked), while still have the options and variety offered by BF3 and BF4.
I think they just started doing vehicles wrong in BF3 and BF4, and it only happened because of their decision to make infantry combat less... Well shit compared to BF2. It felt like in BF3 and BF4 that the vehicles were essentially very large powerups or power weapons that were an add-on to the infantry combat.
And Visceral spent how many years working on this re-skin? 3?.
Demo to be leaked next week followed by the full game in three weeks.
Where can I download this mod?
Edit: Why couldn't we get Bad Company 3 instead of this?
i wish bad company 3 came out, instead of this game :/
Seems weird they claimed that leaked footage was from an old build, yet this looks worse than that. Dumbed down assets for the beta?

Four minutes of loading.

Even though its been said a bajillion times, it hasnt been said this way.
Good show.
Already exists. Unless you meant a new version for a newer game. I would also like that.
I was Day 1 on this...but wow, this is a re-skinned mod.
Instead of S&D suitcase match, they LITERALLY change the name from suitcase to MONEY PILE for the mode.
LOL...Sad sad sad sad day for BF franchise.
What next? Headquarter mode into "Holdout mode": Cop Station vs Robber hideout...I would laugh if my prediction comes true.
BC2 is the best Battlefield 3/4/hardline, loads of destruction and variety in maps. I want another one because it nailed the gameplay and maps perfectly but I doubt that it will happen again.
Most likely to save space again.

Battlefield: Hardleaked
Believe it....no way...
Won't believe it
Can't believe it....
No...
This does look like a reskin and I think they played it too safe but I honestly feel this will end up a better game than BF4. I think Visceral is more proven on the campaign side so I am expecting the campaign to be fun. Vice police theme is certainly fresher and more interesting than modern military so that helps.
On the MP side I feel like the lack of jets and tanks will equate to a better MP experience overall. Jet battles are cool but they do not really contribute to the objective of the map. Many jet pilots also like to abuse flying into helis for instant kills. Tanks are great in theory but not so great in practice, at least in BF4. Many tanks just sit safely in their own spawn and shoot across the entire map for an easy 30 kills and no deaths. Tanks also skew class balance as you feel really gimped if you aren't running engineer in conquest. C4 is ok but you really do need a lot of engineers on your team. Tanks are too powerful against other land vehicles which means no one wants to use jeeps and die in one shell.
I really think less is more in this case. If indeed there are no jets and tanks then people will use cars, bikes, and armored vehicles more often. You may even be able to get an ammo or med pack in conquest for a change.
I don't understand what people were expecting. With its problems, bf4 is still a visual/audio treat. I am definitely getting this. Cops and robbers in the Bf universe is an easy purchase for me.
Back in the day this would've been made by the community and would've been free.
It also would've had better support lol.
Yeah, looks pretty disappointing to be honest and if it has half the bugs BF4 did at launch it won't be worth buying off the bat, if at all.
There was never any chance that I was buying another Battlefield game, so this doesn't affect me at all.
